You know when you're in the mood for hearing a really good female singer? Okay, maybe not. I'm overwhelmed by the amount of music-loving citizens who specifically "don't like female singers" (minus one or two.. probably Joni Mitchell, but definitely no Joanna Newsoms or Sarah McLachlans). Perhaps because I am a female, I can connect more with the emotion the singer emits. I don't know. I'm also mystified by the amount of people who think lyrics bastardize music. Umm, what! But that is a story for another day.
Kaki King-Yellowcake (Video)
FACT: In February 2006, King was named as a “Guitar God” by Rolling Stone Magazine, becoming the first ever female to make this list in the history of the publication.
FACT: Latest album was out two weeks ago, Dreaming of Revenge.
FACT: Kaki King was the 'stunt woman' for August in the movie August Rush. She did all those cool things with the guitar. It wasn't an 8 year-old boy after all.
FACT: The little gospel girl in the movie? That was her real voice.
